That Really Are Hardy 
LOWERS and folks are a deal 
| Barons: sturdier ones come 
from the more rugged climates. 
Coddled folks are not hardy folks. 
Our hardy flowers are very much 
un-coddled. They must stand the 
rigors of our New England winters 
along with therestof us. 
Those that do stand 
it and in the spring 
come up smiling, will 
stand practically any- 
thing within reason ~ 
that you may ask them 
to stand. 
After any winter 
when the snow has 
laid on an extra heavy 
blanket over ourplants, 
it always seems as if 
they were particularly 
fine that spring. May- 
be this has nothing to 
do with it, but least- 
wise our plants this 
year were never better. 
Every one is full 
rooted —just the kind 
that transplant easily 
and promptly become 
happy in their new 
homes.

Let us suggest how to duplicate this hardy 
garden border 
Right now a dozen or more of the 
fine old time ones come to mind 
which you surely ought to have. 
First off, of course, hollyhocks, the 
wonderful doubles and singles in 
their riots of color. Foxglove — 
surely you will want foxglove. And 
ragged robin or bee 
balm with its cheery 
spraying fountains of 
rich cardinal blooms. 
Honeysuckle — how 
could you possibly pass 
by honeysuckle ? Sure- 
ly you will also want 
some of the flowers of 
Shakespeare’s garden: 
thyme, rosemary, lark- 
spur and like old Eng- 
lish favorites. 
We will gladly sug- 
gest a hardy garden 
collection for three, 
four, five or ten dol- 
lars. Or select just 
what you want from 
our catalog; to a copy 
of which you are most 
welcome. 
But order quickly — 
time flies — May is on 
the gallop.
